drank Nutty Almond Cream by Tiesta Tea
2891 tasting notes

Schedule and setting for the next couple of weeks have prompted an immunity-boosting binge, so I’m spiking what I drink with lots of herbal goodies. In this case, I tossed a teaspoon of chickweed in with this chewy, chunky dessert tea and left it a good 15 minutes while I walked around our leafy-crisp neighborhood.

Straight up, this is a very naturally sweet herbal blend. I think I saw “apple crisp” as one of the flavor comparisons, and that’s accurate. So the chickweed (which is drinkable on its own, but not very flavorful) merely ratcheted the sweetness down a notch. A good way to mask something good for you.

P.S. It doesn’t taste much like almond, but it’s still very good!

My favorite go to herbs: elderberries, nettles, and burdock root (that one for soups, not teas)

I pull chickweed for….well, my chickens. They go nuts for it. I never thought of making tea with it. They may have to share.
